The Satmar United Talmudical Academy yeshiva in Kiryas Joel expelled
about 44 boys, apparently without reason, promting rioting in the
hasidic village and a rebellion against the Kiryas Joel Satmar Rebbe Rabbi Aharon Teitelbaum, who fled to London.

The Rebbe protested the singing of Hatikvah, the Israeli national anthem, at a Chabad gathering, and the Rebbe refused to use the words “Medinat Yisrael,” the State of Israel. The Rebbe also forbade the Star of David from being printed on Chabad books. “We are Zionists. But not the so-called Zionists who created the State of Israel, rather we are Zionists who pray thrice daily that ‘G-d lay His eyes upon Zion,’” the Chabad rabbi wrote. “The difference is immense.”

Rabbi Shimon Rosenberg, the father of Rivkie Holtzberg who was killed along with her husband Gavriel in the Mumbai Chabad House terror attack two years ago, was asked to light the torch with his 5-year-old grandson Moshe, who survived the attack. But according to a source in Israel, the torch-lighting did not go smoothly.

Rabbi Shimon Rosenberg, the father of Rivkie Holtberg – who was murdered along with her husband Gavriel by terrorists in Mumbai, India two years ago along with several other Jews at the Chabad House they ran there – was asked to light the official Independence Day torch by the Government of Israel along with his grandson Moshe, who survived the Mumbai attack. Chabad rabbis objected and will be issuing a statement saying Rosenberg and his grandson Moshe do not represent Chabad.

"It is well known that when a dinner of United Lubavitcher Yeshivos concluded with the Hatikvah, the Rebbe removed his auspices from the institution. This harsh action was taken, even though Lubavitchers hadn't sung it, some supporters had. But since the organizers didn't see to it to hush the anthem's singing, the Rebbe removed his name from the school."

Chabad Rabbi Sholom Dovber Wolpe wants to publish a book with photographs, names addresses and contact information of all police, soldiers, officers and politicians who backed the Disengagement from Gaza. Ynet reports:

What do the police do when they are looking for criminals? They publish pictures of the offenders and ask the public's help in finding them.

An extreme faction in the Chabad movement has decided to adopt the method, only their 'most wanted' are not criminals, but members of law enforcement agencies and IDF soldiers who were involved in the disengagement.

People who provide information about those in the pictures are promised a reward.

Chabad's attitude towards the IDF is usually amiable. On Jewish holidays they go to army bases and present the soldiers with Hanukkah donuts and Purim parcels of food gifts, for example.

But an extreme sect in the movement, that calls itself the World Headquarters to Save Israel, is launching this new scheme targeting those who participated in the pullout.

Members of the organization are circulating a booklet in settlements, synagogues and places where evacuated settlers are now living. The book has photos of soldiers and police officers who took part in the disengagement. They are asking for the public's help in identifying the individuals in the pictures and providing their names and addresses.

The booklet also includes 'before and after' pictures of houses, families being evacuated and clashes between security forces and the evacuees.

Sentences like "We shall never forget, and we shall never forgive," which is normally used in the context of the Shoah, and "Remember what Ariel Sharon did unto thee," alluding to "Remember what Amalek did unto thee" (Deut.. 25/17), also appear in the pamphlet.

The organization's intention is to later publish a "Black Book" with all the pictures, names and addresses of the "'expulsion perpetrators."…

There is a history of harassment and physical assult against those who backed Disengagement. In a normal country, what Wolpe and his fellow freaks seek to do would be illegal, and Wolpe would be put in jail where he belongs. But Israel is not normal, so this freak will contine his incitement and his harassment (terroristic threats, really) until some poor soldier is, God forbid, killed by a Chabad-influenced extremist.

Wolpe has a bigger following from the Chabad street in Israel than the so-called "mainstream" Chabad leadership does. While it is true that most Chabadniks are not violent, some are. And Wolpe's influence is strongly felt in NRP-settler circles, especially in the most violent extremes of settler culture.

Wolpe is a major backer and the chief theologian, so to speak, of the late Rebbe as the messiah. His publications are plastered with the 'messiah's' picture. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see the horrible potential for violence from Wolpe's activism.

He belongs in jail. Let's hope he is put there now, before innocent people are hurt.

Chabad was viciously anti-Zionist until after the founding of the State of Israel. When Jews could have fled Europe and gone to Israel or America, Lubavitch rebbes opposed leaving Europe. The 6th Lubavitcher Rebbe, a vicious anti-Zionist in his own right, told followers there would be no war and that it was safe to stay in Europe. He did this from Warsaw in the summer of 1939, less than four months before WW2 began with the bombing and invasion of Poland. He was rescued by the American government. What did he ask for as he was brought to safety from amidst the destruction and horror? To save more Jews? No. The man asked for the rescue of his silver collection and his rare book collection – Sherlock Holmes in Yiddish translation along side of "sefarim". Not a peep from the holy man's mouth about saving Jews.

Click on the continuation link to read his father's – the Rashab, the 5th Lubavitcher Rebbe' – infamous letter on anti-Zionism, written about 1900 and widely circulated:

Failed messiah was established and run in 2004 by Mr. Shmarya (Scott)Rosenberg. The site was acquired by Diversified Holdings, Feb 2016. .We thank Mr. Rosenberg for his efforts on behalf of the Jewish Community.
